Re: Have questions GZ250 or Rebel 250?

25 miles each way

50 miles total per day

5 days a week

250miles a week

About 8/12 months a year


Surface street speed limit = 50mph for the most part. Never over 50mph. A lot of 40 mph roads.

Total time it takes me going at that speed to get to my campus = 40min on surface streets

Total time it would take going at 65mph on the Highway = 25min

I don't really mind not taking the highway like I said. Even If I did I would be going at around 65-70mph for maybe 15 min of the 25 total. This would maybe be 4-6 times a month. From what Iv read there should be absolutely no reason why the GZ250 can't go 70mph for about 15 min one day a week without causing damage to it.

I don't plan to make any trips longer than 100miles ever...on a GZ250.

I plan to use surface streets about 90% of the time I ride 10% being Highway use.

Basically 90% of the time the GZ will never go beyond 55mph, and the 10% times it does it will be 70mph.

Hopefully I made things a bit more clear.

Also about my Weight and Size I am 6.0 Tall but I only weigh around 175-180lb Im a semi skinny guy but my backpack alone is like 25 more lb lol
